The homicide rate is higher in rural Indiana than in the urban areas, just say'n.

Crazy people from the cities have no problem packing their belongings and joining their rural counterparts who do not get along with other people and just want to isolate themselves from the rest of the world.

I have been thinking about retiring to a remote village in South America where I can grow my own fruits and vegetables year-round. Even though I have met some really wonderful people in my visits to the area, there are many more wonderful people right here in urban America that I would be leaving behind and that is a real concern to me. The Internet may help to bridge the miles, but the personal contact with such diverse acquaintances of urban America will be sorely missed.
